Eric is back again, and as usual, he and Jason are talking about Japanese films. In fact, they're continuing their series on the work of Shohei Imamura with two fascinating, odd, contrasting films: The Eel and The Pornographers.

The former is an intriguing tale of redemption, guilt and the obscure love of a fish. The latter is, well, about the obscure love of a fish, as well as bizarre families, an intiguing filmic style, and some very unsexy pornography.

These are fascinating works of film art. Even if you're not familiar with them, we think this will be a good listen.
